Global bulletproof plate Market Research Report 2024-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2030

Body armor is a personal body protective gear used to absorb the impact of bullets or fragments fired from firearms. It is a protective equipment for individual soldiers. Different types have different operating principles and can be divided into fully soft and reinforced/composite types. Bulletproof vests are mainly used to protect the human body from being harmed by warheads or shrapnel. The core materials of the bulletproof layer are mainly metal materials (high-strength steel, aluminum and its alloys, titanium and its alloys), ceramic sheets (alumina, silicon carbide, carbonized Boron) and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, nylon, Kevlar fiber, etc.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global bulletproof plate market finds that the global bulletproof plate market reached a value of USD 1643.53 million in 2023. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 2338.18 million by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.05% during the forecast period.

At present, the popularity of body armor in the military has been very high. Most of the body armor is made of multi-layer aramid or polyethylene PE. Although this kind of body armor is relatively light to wear, due to material and technology limitations, When dealing with some firearms, such as rifles. The bulletproof effect of body armor is not very good, so bulletproof inserts appear accordingly. Bulletproof inserts are generally used with body armor or tactical vests. There are two types of bulletproof insert plates: front plate and side plate. The front plate can protect the chest and back of the human body, while the side plate provides protection for the sides of the human body. The types of materials used to make bulletproof inserts can be roughly divided into three types: steel, polyethylene and ceramics. Ceramic bulletproof inserts are now widely used and occupy the mainstream. Metal bullet-proof inserts have good ballistic resistance and low manufacturing cost, but the density of metal materials is generally high, and the heavy weight of body armor has a greater impact on soldiers' mobility; ceramic bullet-proof inserts have excellent ballistic resistance and low density, making them the best choice for hard bullet-proof inserts. Ideal materials for plates, ceramic materials commonly used for bulletproof include aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon carbide (SiC) and boron carbide (B4C). Among them, Al2O3 has lower manufacturing cost and is currently widely used.
